Results
Specimen not shown: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: lung mesenchyme Present
TS17: lung epithelium Present Regionally restricted Expression was observed only on a subset of epithelial cells. Expression was high at branch tips and markedly decreased to an undetectable level distal to the tips.

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 16.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS24: lung mesenchyme Present
TS24: lung epithelium Present Regionally restricted Expression was observed only on a subset of epithelial cells. Expression was high at branch tips and markedly decreased to an undetectable level distal to the tips.

Specimen 2F: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: lung mesenchyme Present 2F Most mesenchymal cells expressed Itga2 and Itga6 concomitantly.
TS22: lung epithelium Present Regionally restricted 2F Expression was observed only on a subset of epithelial cells.

Specimen 4C: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: lung epithelium Present Non-Uniform 4C Expression was high at branch tips and markedly decreased to an undetectable level distal to the tips.

Specimen 4F: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: lung epithelium Present Non-Uniform 4F Expression was high at branch tips and markedly decreased to an undetectable level distal to the tips.

Specimen 6C: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: lung mesenchyme Present 6C
TS20: lung epithelium Present Non-Uniform 6C Expression was restricted to tips of the epithelial tubules, areas displaying high levels of Collagen IV mRNA. Expression on more mature central airway epithelium was greatly diminished to undetectable.

Specimen 7B: embryonic day 15.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: lung mesenchyme Present 7B
TS23: lung epithelium Present Regionally restricted 7B Expression was detected in epithelia that were positive for Lamb1 mRNA. Expression in more central airways was undetectable.

Specimen 7E: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: lung mesenchyme Present 7E
TS22: lung epithelium Present Regionally restricted 7E Expression was detected in epithelia that were positive for Lamc1 mRNA. Expression in more central airways was undetectable.

Specimen 7H: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: lung mesenchyme Present 7H
TS22: lung epithelium Present Regionally restricted 7H Expression was detected in epithelia that were positive for Lama1 mRNA. Expression in areas lacking Lama1 mRNA was undetectable.
